Trump administration escalates deportations of undocumented migrants

In the United States, a significant crackdown on undocumented migrants is causing distress for many families. President Donald Trump's administration is enforcing strict deportation policies. Reports show that the arrests include people in various situations, such as attending immigration appointments, working, or even returning from their honeymoons. Franco Caraballo was arrested while at an immigration center in Texas. His wife, Johanny Sanchez, explained that he was taken because of his tattoos, which officials linked him to gang activity, despite his lack of a criminal record. "I haven't done anything, I'm a good person," he told her during a phone call. Many affected families are facing painful separations, as deported parents leave their children behind. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reports that thousands of migrants have been detained since Trump took office. Many detainees claim they were not involved in any criminal activity. For example, Camila Munoz was held after her honeymoon, despite having begun the process for legal residency. Her husband feels shocked and frustrated by the situation. Other migrants like Shirly Guardado were arrested while simply going about their daily lives. Her husband, Ayssac Correa, a U.S. Army sergeant, is worried about the emotional impact on their young son, who is struggling without his mother. He hopes the legal process to bring her back won't take years. Immigration lawyers express concern about the implications of these policies. One lawyer described the current crackdown as the scariest he has seen in his 21 years of practice. Many in the community feel betrayed, fearing a labor shortage as hardworking migrants face deportation.
